It is exhausting to be running around pretending to be scared at night - It sounds so wussy actory.

I used to like the word of the day and when I read, highlight words that I didn't know and look them up.

I really have no preference between TV and film. I think that each individual project is its own thing and has a very different style. I have worked on big movies and small movies and network TV. I have had amazing experiences in each environment, and awful ones - more good than bad, though.

When we have that scene where I shoot that huge machine gun, my first thought was "Why does anybody want this? What is the point of something like this?" I know some people feel powerful or whatever and I'm just like, " I feel like I want nothing to do with this."

I definitely prefer real-life endings. But I do like having an ending. I hate when a movie just sort of ends and is so open-ended you feel like it wasn't finished. I appreciate leaving things up to the interpretation of the audience and letting them make decisions about where things will go in the future - but the director has to make a decision; otherwise it is sort of a cop-out.

I think my strength is always been in being very natural. I think Shakespeare and things like that would be more a stretch for me.

I never had any film training. I went to Northwestern. I studied education and theater. So it was all theater training.
